I am so very sorry to hear about your loss. My wife and I consider this "our song" and it was the first song we danced to at our reception. We met a bit later than most do (she was 33 and I was 42) and both of us kind of thought we'd spend the rest of our lives alone until we found each other. This song really spoke to both of us as I imagine it did to you and your husband.
Thank you, thank you, THANK YOU for this. This song single-handedly exemplifies why Dear Evan Hansen is one of my favorite musicals-I just relate to it so much. If I ever get married, this song will somehow make it into my wedding-my vows, the wedding playlist, something-because Evan’s verse will always tap into the deepest part of me. The well of emotion you don’t even know is there. Being there to listen to this live must have been AMAZING, and I am so thankful that I could live vicariously through you and have another version of one of my favorite songs to listen to.
Thank you for capturing this! I was lucky enough to go see DEH in January 2017 right after they moved to Broadway. I saw them perform this live and cried so hard then and seeing them reunite to sing this now made me sob again. I've heard many versions of this song and while I love them all, Ben and Laura's voices just mix so well and it's magical. Nothing compares to the original singers for me.
Ahhh I was there I don’t really remember from the end of this song until around when Rachel Zegler came because I was processing this and in a whole different dimension. It was actually so cool
I can literally measure my life as to how it was before vs after seeing DEH in Dec 2017. I think Ben had just departed but got to see Laura perform. This is such a treat
Is it only me or does Ben just use way to much vibrato? I love his voice but this has been a constant complaint with others as well. Maybe he just can't find the right note?
@@michaeljames1134 he’s always on the note, I guess he just likes vibrato? Interestingly he tones that down when he’s in a Broadway show playing a role. Evan Hansen and Leo Frank don’t use anywhere near as much vibrato as Ben Platt 😂 I wonder if it’s a product of going to a performing arts school as a kid - maybe having a strong vibrato was like, street cred 😆

Did the audience know she was going to make an appearance? I was lucky to see the original cast. Don’t get me wrong the other casts are great but the original cast members were the best,
